Procedure :
Prepare the incoming coaxial cable used for the distribution of power (including external
fi ttings not supplied by Alpha).
Loosen the APX brass seizure screw output fi tting to accommodate the center pin of the
cable connector.
Screw the cable connector into the output port (large hex nut fi tting) located on the
baseplate of the APX. Place the center pin far enough into the fi tting to secure the seizure
assembly.
Tighten the brass seizure screw on the center pin. Loose connections can cause arcing
and possible damage to the center conductor. During routine maintenance, always check
the seizure screw assembly to ensure that it is tight.
